For type A indicators the manufacturer shall declare the performance and accuracy requirements of the remote altitude transducers to be used with the indi

28、cator. NOTE 1It is not intended or recommended that complete tests should be made on every indicator supplied. Three kinds of test are specified, as follows. a) Type tests. To be made on representative samples to prove the design. b) Production routine tests. To be made on all indicators manufacture

29、d in accordance with the standard. c) Production quality tests. To be made on samples as specified in the individual specification. NOTE 2For the guidance of users, minimum tests recommended to verify the serviceability of indicators manufactured conforming to this British Standard are indicated inA

30、nnex C. 4.1.2 Vibration not exceeding0.2g shall be applied to the indicators during the performance tests, except the friction test specified in4.2 and4.3. NOTEVibration of this order is attainable with a total amplitude of0.04mm and a frequency of50Hz. 4.1.3 Pressure cycling or exercising other tha

31、n that produced by normal variation of terrestrial barometric pressure shall be applied to the indicators for a period of not less than16h before the ranging tests are performed. 4.1.4 Readings taken from barometers used to test the altimeters shall be corrected for latitude and temperature as speci

32、fied in BS2520. 4.1.5 Unless otherwise specified, tests shall be made at a temperature of (20 5) C. 4.1.6 The reference standard for atmospheric pressure shall be a mercury barometer which is certified at least once every two years by the competent authority to be accurate, with corrections, to with

33、in 0.2mbar. NOTE 1A reference barometer newly introduced into service should be checked at intervals of approximately six months until the stability of its calibration has been established. NOTE 2Unless extreme care is taken in reading the reference barometer, the error introduced may exceed some of

34、 the tolerances specified in this test procedure. 4.2 Type tests 4.2.1 Ranging, accuracy and hysteresis test With the ground pressure set to1013.25 mbar and with the indicator in the normal position with the dial upright and in a vertical plane, the errors shall not exceed the amounts specified inTa

35、ble 1. The test shall be made with pressure decreasing at approximately3000ft per minute and with pressure increasing at approximately6000ft per minute. The rate of change of pressure shall be reduced progressively as the test points (seeTable 2) are approached to avoid passing the test point. Movem

36、ent of the pointer during decreasing as well as increasing pressure shall be smooth and free from irregular motion when the pressure is changed uniformly.

Table 2 Ground pressure scale test points 4.2.2 Static pressure error correction test (if applicable) NOTEThis test may be incorporated as part of the ranging test of4.2.1 or made separately, as required by the individu

39、al specification. Combinations of pitot pressure and altitude shall be applied as follows: a) if made in combination with the test in4.2.1 the overall error in indication shall not exceed1.5mbar above an altitude of5000ft or the tolerances ofTable 1 below5000ft; b) if made separately the difference

40、in corrected and uncorrected indications shall not be greater than the nominal correction 0.5mbar, except that below5000ft the indications as corrected shall not exceed the tolerances shown inTable 1. 4.2.3 Damping The damping of indication shall be such that with rapid changes of pressure between s

42、e millibar setting range specified inTable 2; each test point shall be approached as follows: a) pressure increasing with the baroscale knob turned clockwise and counter-clockwise; b) pressure decreasing with the baroscale knob turned clockwise and counter-clockwise. NOTEThis ensures that any hyster

43、esis effects in the ground pressure setting mechanism are known. At each of the pressure values specified inTable 2 the pointer shall indicate zero within 35ft when the corresponding setting is made on the ground pressure scale and the appropriate barometer corrections have been applied. 4.2.5 Instr

44、ument position error test With atmospheric pressure applied to the indicator, the difference between the pointer indication when the indicator is in the normal operating position and when it is in any other position shall not exceed 20ft. 4.2.6 Leak test With the pointer set to indicate zero, suctio

45、n shall be applied sufficient to move the counter and pointer to5000ft indicated and then shut off. The isolation shall be applied as close to the instrument as possible. There shall be no change in height indication in excess of10ft during the ensuing minute. The following test shall be made on the

46、 pitot pressure section of indicators incorporating PE (position error) correction sensing mechanism within the indicator case. a) Apply a pressure equivalent to300knots to the pitot connection and then shut off the air. The applied pressure, when it is stabilized, shall be measured and there shall

47、be no change of pressure after1min. b) If the indicator is a read-out unit from a remote transducer it shall be suitably tested to establish that changes of ambient pressures experienced over the altitude range do not result in deformation, or degrading of the accuracy, of the complete transducer in

49、ure to approximately30000ft and hold for4h. The readings at the beginning and the end of the test shall be within the tolerances quoted inTable 1. The maximum difference between the two readings shall be50ft. c) Immediately on completion of test2 increase the pressure at20000ft per minute to the original datum pressure.
